Our church wants to start a new kind of men's ministry and this book is the ticket! The first chapter covers how to get things off the ground and the last chapter is how to get men to serve each other--and they cover everything vital to a thriving men's ministry inbetween. From retreats and fun nights to being open and real with one another--something that doesn't come to easily to most men. Very helpful, practical, and fun to read. We can't wait to use these ideas to super-charge our new ministry to men!

Great Foundation and Ongoing Resource

I picked up this book for my husband, who is getting a Men's Ministry off the ground at our church. I had purchased Women's Ministry in the 21st Century when our Women's Ministry was getting started and found it rich with foundational ideas and tools for many aspects of the ministry. Our Men's Ministry is not officially called Men's Ministry, because they want to make it edgy...something "manly men" will want to be a part of. For this reason, when I brought home the book, my husband was a bit hesitant. He didn't necessarily want to fit the ministry into a book. But once he started looking at it, he said, "This is a really good book!" (I held my sarcastic reply.) Men's Ministry in the 21st Century will help anyone with the process of putting down a foundation and enhancing what you already have. And there is no need to read the book from cover to cover (although you might find yourself doing just that!). It's so well organized, you can simply look for that specific tool, study, or service idea you want.
